{reminder ~ next week the Inspiration Workshop! re-starts}

One week from today the Inspiration Workshop! starts back up, hooray! We took a little break in December – the first part of January for the holidays + family/friend celebrations. Now that they’re over {sad!} we hope you’re ready to link up with us again :]

If you’re new here you may be wondering what the Inspiration Workshop! is? I started it back in June, it’s a monthly linky party where I invite YOU to link up with us by sharing your take on the scheduled prompt {changes each time}. How closely you follow the prompt is totally up to you. Maybe you only want to share photos, maybe you want to share A TON of photos? Maybe you want to write just one little word? Totally perfect! Just remember to give proper credit to the photos you share, if they aren’t yours.

But — there’s one big change starting next Thursday when we re-start the workshop: we’ll be linking up only ONCE A MONTH! I started the Inspiration Workshop! months ago thinking a weekly linky party would be perfect, but after some careful thought and collaboration with Cambria and Nester I think it’ll be the most successful if it changes to once a month. This week is an exception ~ all following I.W. weeks will be on the second Thursday of the month.

And, we’ve written the Editorial Calender for the next quarter!

Starting tomorrow, monthly emails will be sent out, elaborating on the following weekly prompts:
Jan. 19th: Bedroom
Feb. 9th: Organization
March 8th: Spring

*these dates reflect the actual linky party; the email notification [click to sign up] {which includes extra info about the prompt} will email the Friday before the scheduled monthly date.

My hope is that by sharing the weekly prompts months in advance you’ll have an easier time linking up/getting to know other bloggers.

So glad the Inspiration Workshop is back! I’ve got to admit I was feeling like there was a hole in my blogging. I love that the workshop gets me to write about a topic that might not have been sitting right in front of me (my normal posts on crocheting, gluten free cooking, and exciting handmade finds). It’s always such a fun creative exercise and really helps me get outside my normal “zone” when it comes to blogging.

I will totally be doing this!!! Quick question and maybe this is already answered somewhere, but – do you need to post your I.W. post ON Thursday??? Or can one be on, say, Wednesday and we just link up Thursday???

my recommendation would be to post it on friday. if you post it on wednesday, anyone that clicks over to my site (per the linky button) won’t see the main post or the other link-ups (because it won’t be there until thursday). if you post it on friday, people will see the main post and it’ll be more complete :)

perhaps you could schedule your post to auto-publish on thursday (if you aren’t able to do it manually)?
